<h1>Tux Paint Config.</h1>
<blockquote>
  <p>As of Tux&nbsp;Paint version&nbsp;0.9.14, a graphical tool is available
  that allows you to change Tux&nbsp;Paint's behavior.  However, if you'd
  rather not install and use this tool, or want a better understanding of
  the available options, please continue reading.</p>
</blockquote>

<hr size=2 noshade>

<h1>Configuration File</h1>
<blockquote>
  <p>You can create a simple configuration file for Tux&nbsp;Paint, which it
  will read each time you start it up.</p>

  <p>The file is simply a plain text file containing the options
  you want enabled:</p>

  <h2>Linux, Unix and Mac&nbsp;OS&nbsp;X Users</h2>
  <blockquote>
    <p>The file you should create is called
    "<code><b>.tuxpaintrc</b></code>"
    and it should be placed in your home directory.
    (a.k.a. "<code>~/.tuxpaintrc</code>" or
    "<code>$HOME/.tuxpaintrc</code>")</p>

    <h3>System-Wide Configuration File (Linux and Unix)</h3>
    <blockquote>
      <p>Before this file is read, a system-wide configuration file is
      read.  (By default, this configuration has no settings enabled.)
      It is located at:</p>

      <blockquote>
        <code>/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.conf</code>
      </blockquote>
    
      <p>You can disable reading of this file altogether, leaving the
      settings as defaults (which can then be overridden by your
      "<code>.tuxpaintrc</code>" file and/or command-line arguments)
      by using the command-line option:</p>

      <blockquote>
        <code>--nosysconfig</code>
      </blockquote>
    </blockquote>
  </blockquote>


  <h2>Windows Users</h2>
  <blockquote>
    <p>The file you should create is called
    "<code><b>tuxpaint.cfg</b></code>" and it
    should be placed in Tux&nbsp;Paint's folder.</p>
    
    <p>You can use NotePad or WordPad to create this file.
    Be sure to save it as Plain Text, and make sure the filename
    doesn't have ".txt" at the end...</p>
  </blockquote>
</blockquote>

<hr size=2 noshade>

<h1>Available Options</h1>
<blockquote>
  <p>The following settings can be set in the configuration file.
  (Command-line settings will override these.
  See the "<a href="#command_line"><i>Command-Line Options</i></a>"
  section, below.)</p>

  <dl>
  <dt><code><b>fullscreen=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Run the program in full screen mode, rather than in a window.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>fullscreen=native</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Run the program in full screen mode. Additionally, assume the
    screen's current resolution (set by the operating system).
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>windowsize=<i>SIZE</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Run the program at a different size (in windowed mode) or
    at a different screen resolution (in fullscreen mode), rather than the
    default (usually 800x600).</p>

    <p>The <i>SIZE</i> value should be presented in pixels, in 'width-by-height'
    format, with an "x" (lowercase&nbsp;X) between the values. The size can
    be anything that's at least 640 wide, and at least 480 tall.</p>

    <p>Some examples:
    <ul>
    <li>640x480
    <li>1024x768
    <li>768x1024
    <li>1600x1200
    </ul>
    </p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>orient=portrait</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Swaps the width/height options given to Tux&nbsp;Paint, useful for
    rotating the window on portait displays, such as a tablet&nbsp;PC that's
    in tablet orientation.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>native=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>When running <i>Tux&nbsp;Paint</i> in fullscreen mode, this
    assumes the screen's current resolution (overriding any
    "<code>windowsize</code>" option), as set by the operating system.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>allowscreensaver=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>By default, <i>Tux&nbsp;Paint</i> prevents your system's screensaver
    from starting up. You can override this by using the "<code>allowscreensaver</code>"
    option. Note: This requires version 1.2.12 or higher of the SDL library.
    (You can also do this by setting the "<code>SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER</code>"
    environment variable on your system to "<code>1</code>".)
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nosound=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Disable sound effects.  (Note: Pressing <b>[Alt]</b>&nbsp;+&nbsp;<b>[S]</b>
    cannot be used to reenable sounds if they were disabled using this option.)
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>noquit=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Disable the on-screen "Quit" button and prevent the <b>[Escape]</b> key
    from quitting <i>Tux&nbsp;Paint</i>.</p>
    
    <p>Using the <b>[Alt]</b>&nbsp;+&nbsp;<b>[F4]</b> keyboard combination
    or clicking the window's close button (assuming you're not in
    fullscreen mode) still works to quit <i>Tux&nbsp;Paint</i>.</p>

    <p>You can also use the following keyboard combination to quit:
    <b>[Shift]</b>&nbsp;+&nbsp;<b>[Control]</b>&nbsp;+&nbsp;<b>[Escape]</b>.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>noprint=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Disable the printing feature.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>printdelay=<i>SECONDS</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Restrict printing so that printing can occur only once every
    <i>SECONDS</i> seconds.
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>printcommand=<i>COMMAND</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p><i>(Linux and Unix only)</i></p>

    <p>Use the command <i>COMMAND</i> to print a PostScript format file
    when the 'Print' button is clicked.
    If this option is not specifically not set, the default command is:</p>

    <blockquote>
      <code>lpr</code>
    </blockquote>
    
    <p><b>Note:</b> Versions of <i>Tux&nbsp;Paint</i> prior to 0.9.15
    sent PNG format data to the print command (which defaulted to
    "<code>pngtopnm&nbsp;|&nbsp;pnmtops&nbsp;|&nbsp;lpr</code>").</p>
    
    <p>If you set an alternative <code><b>printcommand</b></code> in the
    configuration file prior to version 0.9.15, you will need to change it.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>altprintcommand=<i>COMMAND</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p><i>(Linux and Unix only)</i></p>

    <p>Use the command <i>COMMAND</i> to print a PostScript format file
    when the 'Print' button is clicked while the <b>[Alt]</b> modifier
    key is being held.  (This is typically used for providing a print
    dialog, similar to when pressing <b>[Alt]</b>+'Print' in Windows and
    Mac&nbsp;OS&nbsp;X.)</p>
    
    <p>If this option is not specifically not set, the default command is
    KDE's graphical print dialog:</p>

    <blockquote>
      <code>kprinter</code>
    </blockquote>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>printcfg=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p><i>(Windows and Mac OS X only)</i></p>

    <p>Tux&nbsp;Paint will use a printer configuration file when printing.
    Push the <b>[Alt]</b> key while clicking the 'Print' button in
    Tux&nbsp;Paint to cause a Windows print dialog window to appear.</p>
    
    <p>(Note: This only works when not running Tux&nbsp;Paint in
    fullscreen mode.)  Any configuration changes made in this dialog
    will be saved to the file "<code>userdata/print.cfg</code>", and
    used again, as long as the "printcfg" option is set.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>altprint=always</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This causes Tux&nbsp;Paint to always show the printer dialog
    (or, on Linux/Unix, run the "altprintcommand") when the 'Print' button
    is clicked.  In other words, it's like clicking 'Print' while holding
    <b>[Alt]</b>, except you don't need to hold <b>[Alt]</b> every time.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>altprint=never</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This prevents Tux&nbsp;Paint from <i>ever</i> showing the printer dialog
    (or, on Linux/Unix, run the "altprintcommand") when the 'Print' button
    is clicked.  In other words, it makes the <b>[Alt]</b> key have no
    effect when clicking the 'Print' button.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>altprint=mod</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This is the normal, default behavior.  Tux&nbsp;Paint shows a
    printer dialog (or, on Linux/Unix, runs the "altprintcommand"),
    when the <b>[Alt]</b> key is pressed while the 'Print' button is clicked.
    Clicking 'Print' without holding <b>[Alt]</b> prints without showing
    a dialog.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>papersize=<i>PAPERSIZE</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p><i>(Platforms that use Tux&nbsp;Paint's internal PostScript
    generator &mdash; not Windows, Mac OS X or BeOS.)</i></p>

    <p>Tell Tux&nbsp;Paint what size PostScript to generate.
    If none is specified, Tux&nbsp;Paint first checks
    your <code>$PAPER</code> environment variable, then
    the file <code>/etc/papersize</code>, then uses the the
    'libpaper' library's default paper size.</p>

    <p>Valid paper sizes include:
    letter, legal, tabloid, executive, note, statement,
    a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7, a8, a9, a10,
    b0, b1, b2 b3, b4,
    10x14, 11x17,
    halfletter, halfexecutive, halfnote,
    folio, quarto, ledger,
    archA, archB, archC, archD, archE,
    flsa, flse,
    csheet, dsheet, esheet.
    </p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nolockfile=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>By default, Tux&nbsp;Paint uses what's known as a 'lockfile'
    to prevent it from being launched more than once in 30&nbsp;seconds.
    (This is to avoid accidentally running multiple copies; for example,
    by double-clicking a single-click launcher, or simply
    impatiently clicking the icon multiple times.)</p>

    <p>To make Tux&nbsp;Paint ignore the lockfile, allowing it to
    run again, even if it was just launched less than 30&nbsp;seconds
    ago, enable this setting in the configuration file, or
    run Tux&nbsp;Paint with the '<code>--nolockfile</code>' option
    on the command-line.</p>

    <p>By default, the lockfile is stored in
    "<code>~/.tuxpaint/</code>" under Linux and Unix,
    and "<code>userdata\</code>" under Windows.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>simpleshapes=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Disable the rotation step of the 'Shape' tool.
    Click, drag and release is all that will be needed to draw a shape.
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>uppercase=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    All text will be rendered only in uppercase (e.g., "Brush" will
    be "BRUSH").  Useful for children who can read, but who have only
    learned uppercase letters so far.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>grab=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Tux&nbsp;Paint will attempt to 'grab' the mouse and keyboard, so
    that the mouse is confined to Tux&nbsp;Paint's window, and nearly all
    keyboard input is passed directly to it.</p>

    <p>This is useful to disable operating system actions that could get
    the user out of Tux&nbsp;Paint <b>[Alt]-[Tab]</b> window cycling,
    <b>[Ctrl]-[Escape]</b>, etc.  This is especially useful in
    fullscreen mode.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>noshortcuts=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This disable keyboard shortcuts (e.g., <b>[Ctrl]-[S]</b> for save,
    <b>[Ctrl]-[N]</b> for a new image, etc.)</p>

    <p>This is useful to prevent unwanted commands from being activated
    by children who aren't experienced with keyboards.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>nowheelmouse=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    This disables support for the wheel on mice that have it.
    (Normally, the wheel will scroll the selector menu on the right.)
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nobuttondistinction=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Prior to Tux&nbsp;Paint 0.9.15, the middle and right buttons on
    a mouse could also be used for clicking.  In version 0.9.15, it was changed
    so that <i>only</i> the left mouse button worked, so as to not train
    children to use the wrong button.</p>

    <p>However, for children who have trouble with the mouse, this distinction
    between the two or three buttons on a mouse can be disabled (returning
    Tux&nbsp;Paint to its old behavior) by using this option.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nofancycursors=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This disables the fancy mouse pointer shapes in Tux&nbsp;Paint,
    and uses your environment's normal mouse pointer.</p>

    <p>In some enviornments, the fancy cursors cause problems.
    Use this option to avoid them.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>hidecursor=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This completely hides the mouse pointer shapes in Tux&nbsp;Paint.</p>

    <p>This is useful for touchscreen devices, such as tablet PCs.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>nooutlines=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>In this mode, much simpler outlines and 'rubber-band' lines are
    displayed when using the <b>Lines</b>, <b>Shapes</b>,
    <b>Stamps</b> and <b>Eraser</b> tools.</p>

    <p>This can help when Tux&nbsp;Paint is run on very slow computers,
    or displayed on a remote X-Window display.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>sysfonts=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This option causes Tux&nbsp;Paint to attempt to load fonts
    (for use in the <b>Text</b> tool) from your operating system.
    Normally, Tux&nbsp;Paint will only load the ones that came bundled
    with Tux&nbsp;Paint.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nostamps=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This option tells Tux&nbsp;Paint to not load any rubber stamp
    images, which in turn ends up disabling the <b>Stamps</b> tool.</p>

    <p>This can speed up Tux&nbsp;Paint when it first loads up,
    and reduce memory usage while it's running.  Of course, no stamps
    will be available at all.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nostampcontrols=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    Some images in the <b>Stamps</b> tool can be mirrored, flipped,
    and/or have their size changed.  This option disables the controls,
    and only provides the basic stamps.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>mirrorstamps=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>For stamps that can be mirrored, this option sets them to their
    mirrored shape by default.</p>

    <p>This can be useful for people who prefer things right-to-left,
    rather than left-to-right.</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>stampsize=<i>SIZE</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Use this option to force Tux&nbsp;Paint to set the starting size of
    all stamps.  The <code>SIZE</code> value should be between 0 (smallest)
    and 10 (largest).  The size is relative to the available sizes of the
    stamp, which depends on the stamp itself, and Tux&nbsp;Paint's current
    canvas size.</p>

    <p>Specifc "<code>default</code>" to let Tux&nbsp;Paint decide
    (it's standard behavior).</p>
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>keyboard=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>This allows the keyboard arrow keys to be used
    to control the mouse pointer.  (e.g., for mouseless environments.)</p>
    
    <p>The <b>[Arrow]</b> keys move the mouse pointer.
    <b>[Space]</b> acts as the mouse button.</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>savedir=<i>DIRECTORY</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Use this option to change where Tux&nbsp;Paint's "<code>saved</code>"
    directory/folder is located, which is where Tux&nbsp;Paint saves and opens
    pictures.</p>

    <p>If you do not override it, the <b><i>default</i></b> location is:
    <ul>
    <li>Linux &amp; Unix &mdash; Under a hidden directory named
      "<code>.tuxpaint</code>" in your home directory (aka "<code>~</code>"
      or "<code>$HOME</code>")<br>
      Example: "<code>/home/<i>username</i>/.tuxpaint/saved/</code>"<br>
      <br>

    <li>Windows &mdash; Inside a folder named "<code>TuxPaint</code>"
      in your "<code>Application&nbsp;Data</code>" folder.<br>
      Example: "<code>C:\Documents&nbsp;and&nbsp;Settings\<i>Username</i>\Application&nbsp;Data\TuxPaint\saved\</code>"<br>
      <br>

    <li>Mac OS X &mdash; Inside a folder named "<code>TuxPaint</code>" in your
      "<code>Application&nbsp;Support</code>" folder.<br>
      Example: "<code>/Users/<i>Username</i>/Library/Application&nbsp;Support/TuxPaint/saved/</code>"<br>
    </ul>
    </p>

    <p><b>Note:</b> When specifying a Windows drive (e.g.,
    "<code>H:\</code>"), you must also specify a subdirectory.</p>

    <p><b>Note:</b> Prior to version 0.9.18, Tux&nbsp;Paint would also use
    the setting or default for "<code>savedir</code>" as the place to
    search for personal data files (brushes, stamps, starters and fonts).
    As of version 0.9.18, they may be specified separately
    (see the "<code>datadir</code>" option, below).</p>

    <p><b>Example:</b> <code>savedir=Z:\tuxpaint\</code></p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>datadir=<i>DIRECTORY</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Use this option to change where Tux&nbsp;Paint looks for personal
    data files (brushes, stamps, starters and fonts specific to the
    current user).</p>

    <p>Tux&nbsp;Paint will search for subdirectories/subfolders named
    "<code>brushes</code>", "<code>stamps</code>", "<code>starters</code>"
    and "<code>fonts</code>" under the data directory.</p>

    <p>If you do not override it, the <b><i>default</i></b> location is:
    <ul>
    <li>Linux &amp; Unix &mdash; Under a hidden directory named
      "<code>.tuxpaint</code>" in your home directory (aka "<code>~</code>"
      or "<code>$HOME</code>")<br>
      Example: "<code>/home/<i>username</i>/.tuxpaint/brushes/</code>"<br>
      <br>

    <li>Windows &mdash; Inside a folder named "<code>TuxPaint</code>"
      in your "<code>Application&nbsp;Data</code>" folder.<br>
      Example: "<code>C:\Documents&nbsp;and&nbsp;Settings\<i>Username</i>\Application&nbsp;Data\TuxPaint\brushes\</code>"<br>
      <br>

    <li>Mac OS X &mdash; Inside a folder named "<code>TuxPaint</code>" in your
      "<code>Application&nbsp;Support</code>" folder.<br>
      Example: "<code>/Users/<i>Username</i>/Library/Application&nbsp;Support/TuxPaint/brushes/</code>"<br>
    </ul>
    </p>

    <p><b>Note:</b> Prior to version 0.9.18, Tux&nbsp;Paint would use the
    same setting or default as for "<code>savedir</code>" to search for
    data files.  As of version 0.9.18, they may be specified separately.</p>

    <p><b>Note:</b> When specifying a Windows drive (e.g.,
    "<code>H:\</code>"), you must also specify a subdirectory.</p>

    <p><b>Example:</b> <code>datadir=/home/johnny/tuxpaint-data/</code></p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>saveover=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    This disables the "<i>Save over the old version...?</i>" prompt when
    saving an existing file.  With this option, the older version
    will always be replaced by the new version, automatically.
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>saveover=new</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    This also disables the "<i>Save over the old version...?</i>" prompt
    when saving an existing file.  This option, however, will always
    save a new file, rather than overwrite the older version.
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>saveover=ask</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p><i>(This option is redundant, since this is the default.)</i></p>

    When saving an existing drawing, you will be first asked whether
    to save over the older version or not.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>nosave=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    This disables Tux&nbsp;Paint's ability to save files
    (and therefore disables the on-screen "Save" button).
    It can be used in situations where the program is only being used for
    fun, or in a test environment.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>autosave=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    This prevents Tux&nbsp;Paint from asking whether you want to save
    the current picture when quitting, and assumes you do.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>startblank=yes</b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    This causes Tux&nbsp;Paint to display a blank canvas when it first
    starts up, rather than loading the last image that was being edited.
  </dd>

  <dt><code><b>colorfile=<i>FILENAME</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>You may override Tux&nbsp;Paint's default color palette by creating
    a plain ASCII text file that describes the colors you want, and
    pointing to that file using the <code>colorfile</code> option.</p>

    <p>The file should list one color per line.  Colors are defined in
    terms of their Red, Green and Blue values, each from 0 (off) to 255
    (brightest).  (For more information, try Wikipedia's
    "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rgb">RGB color model</a>"
    article.)</p>

    <p>Colors may be listed using three decimal numbers (e.g.,
    "<code>255&nbsp;68&nbsp;136</code>") or a 6- or 3-digit-long hexadecimal
    'triplet' (e.g., "<code>#ff4488</code>" or "<code>#F48</code>").</p>

    <p>After the color definition (on the same line) you may enter text to
    describe the color.  Tux will display this text when the color is
    clicked.  (For example,
    "<code>#FFF&nbsp;White&nbsp;as&nbsp;snow.</code>")</p>

    <p>As an example, you can see the default colors currently
    used in Tux&nbsp;Paint in:
    "<a href="../default_colors.txt"><code>default_colors.txt</code></a>".</p>
    
    <p>NOTES: You must separate decimal values with spaces, and begin
    hexadecimal values with a pound/number-sign character
    ("<code>#</code>").  In 3-digit hexadecimal, each digit is used for
    both the high and low halves of the byte, so
    "<code>#FFF</code>" is the same as "<code>#FFFFFF</code>", not
    "<code>#F0F0F0</code>".</p>
  </dd>
  
  <dt><code><b>lang=<i>LANGUAGE</i></b></code></dt>
  <dd>
    <p>Run Tux&nbsp;Paint in one of the supported languages.
    Possible choice for <i>LANGUAGE</i> currently include:</p>

    <blockquote>
    <table border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2
    summary="Possible values for 'lang' language setting">

<h1>Overriding System Config. Options using <code>.tuxpaintrc</code></h1>
<blockquote>
  <p><i>(For Linux and Unix users)</i></p>
  
  <p>If any of the above options are set in
  "<code>/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.config</code>", you can override them in your
  own "<code>~/.tuxpaintrc</code>" file.</p>

  <p>For true/false options, like "<code>noprint</code>" and
  "<code>grab</code>", you can simply say they equal 'no' in
  your "<code>~/.tuxpaintrc</code>" file:</p>
    
  <blockquote><code>
    noprint=no<br>
    uppercase=no
  </code></blockquote>
    
  <p>Or, you can use options similar to the command-line override
  options described below.  For example:</p>

  <blockquote><code>
    print=yes<br>
    mixedcase=yes

  <p><i>Note:</i> Tux Paint provides an alternative input method for

  <h2>Setting Your Environment's Locale</h2>
  <blockquote>
    <p>Changing your locale will affect much of your environment.</p>
  
    <p>As stated above, along with letting you choose the language at
    runtime using command-line options ("<code>--lang</code>" and
    "<code>--locale</code>"),
    Tux&nbsp;Paint honors the global locale setting in your environment.</p>

    <p>If you haven't already set your environment's locale, the following
    will briefly explain how:</p>
  
    <h3>Linux/Unix Users</h3>
    <blockquote>
      <p>First, be sure the locale you want to use is enabled by
      editing the file "<code>/etc/locale.gen</code>" on your system and
      then running the program "<code>locale-gen</code>" as root.</p>
    
      <p><i>Note: Debian users may be able to simply run the command
      "<code>dpkg-reconfigure&nbsp;locales</code>" as root to bring up a
      configuration dialog.  Ubuntu users may be able to run
      "<code>sudo&nbsp;dpkg-reconfigure&nbsp;localeconf</code>"
      (the "localeconf" package may need to be installed first), or
      may need to edit the file
      "<code>/var/lib/locales/supported.d/local</code>"
      first, and add locales they want, from the list found in
      "<code>/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED</code>".</i></p>
    
      <p>Then, before running Tux&nbsp;Paint, set your "<code>$LANG</code>"
      environment variable to one of the locales listed above.  (If you
      want all programs that can be translated to be, you may wish to place
      the following in your login script; e.g. <code>~/.profile</code>,
      <code>~/.bashrc</code>, <code>~/.cshrc</code>, etc.)</p>


      <p>For example, in a Bourne Shell (like BASH):</p>

      <blockquote><code>
        export&nbsp;LANG=es_ES&nbsp;;&nbsp;\<br>
        tuxpaint
      </code></blockquote>


      <p>And in a C Shell (like TCSH):</p>

      <blockquote><code>
        setenv&nbsp;LANG&nbsp;es_ES&nbsp;;&nbsp;\<br>
        tuxpaint
      </code></blockquote>
    </blockquote>

    <hr size=1 noshade>

    <h3>Windows Users</h3>
    <blockquote>
      <p>Tux&nbsp;Paint will recognize the current locale and use the
      appropriate files by default. So this section is only for people
      trying different languages.</p>

      <p>The simplest thing to do is to use the '<code>--lang</code>'
      switch in the shortcut (see "INSTALL.txt").  However, by using
      an MSDOS&nbsp;Prompt window, it is also possible to issue a command
      like this:</p>

      <blockquote><code>
        set LANG=es_ES
      </code></blockquote>

      <p>...which will set the language for the lifetime of that DOS
      window.</p>

      <p>For something more permanent, try editing your computer's
      '<code>autoexec.bat</code>' file using Windows' "<b>sysedit</b>"
      tool:</p>

      <h6>Windows 95/98</h6>
      <ol>
      <li>Click on the 'Start' button, and select 'Run...'.
      <li>Type "sysedit" into the 'Open:' box (with or without quotes).
      <li>Click 'OK'.
      <li>Locate the AUTOEXEC.BAT window in the System Configuration
        Editor.
      <li>Add the following at the bottom of the file:

        <blockquote><code>	    
          set LANG=es_ES
        </code></blockquote>
          
      <li>Close the System Configuration Editor, answering yes to save
         the changes.
      <li>Restart your machine.
      </ol>

      <blockquote>
        To affect the <b>entire machine</b>, and <b>all applications</b>,
        it is possible to use the "Regional Settings" control panel:
      </blockquote>

      <ol>
      <li>Click on the 'Start' button, and select
        'Settings&nbsp;|&nbsp;Control&nbsp;Panel'.
      <li>Double click on the "Regional&nbsp;Settings" globe.
      <li>Select a language/region from the drop down list.
      <li>Click 'OK'.
      <li>Restart your machine when prompted.
      </ol>

    </blockquote>
  </blockquote>

  <h3><a name="special_fonts">Special Fonts</a></h3>
  <blockquote>
    <p>Some languages require special fonts be installed.  These font
    files (which are in TrueType format (TTF)), are much too large to
    include with the Tux&nbsp;Paint download, and are available
    separately.  (See the table above, under the
    "<a href="#different_language"><i>Choosing a Different Language</i></a>"
    section.)</p>

    <p><b>Note:</b> As of version 0.9.18, Tux&nbsp;Paint uses the "SDL_Pango"
    library, which utilizes the "Pango" library to render text in the user
    interface, rather than using "SDL_ttf" directly.  Unless your copy of
    Tux&nbsp;Paint was built without Pango support, special fonts should
    <b><i>no longer be necessary</i></b>.</p>

    <p>When running Tux&nbsp;Paint in a language that requires its own font,
    Tux&nbsp;Paint will try to load the font file from its system-wide
    "<code><b>fonts</b></code>" directory (under a
    "<code><b>locale</b></code>" subdirectory).  The name of the file
    corresponds to the first two letters in the 'locale' code of the
    language (e.g., "ko" for Korean, "ja" for Japanese,
    "zh_tw" for Traditional Chinese).</p>
    
    <p>For example, under Linux or Unix, when Tux&nbsp;Paint is run in Korean
    (e.g., with the option "<code>--lang&nbsp;korean</code>"),
    Tux&nbsp;Paint will attempt to load the following font file:</p>

    <blockquote>
      <p><code>/usr/share/tuxpaint/fonts/locale/<b>ko.ttf</b></code></p>
    </blockquote>

    <p>You can download fonts for supported languages from Tux&nbsp;Paint's
    website,
    <a href="http://www.tuxpaint.org/">http://www.tuxpaint.org/</a>.
    (Look in the 'Fonts' section under 'Download.')</p>

    <p>Under Unix and Linux, you can use the <code>Makefile</code> that comes
    with the font to install the font in the appropriate location.</p>
